5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Ballads by Patti LaBelle, November 27, 2009

By	V. A. Catlin-Butler (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

This CD is simply the BEST. Sit down, sit back and just let Pattie entertain you. I was playing this CD this week when my door bell rang. The visitor just raved about what he was hearing and just could not leave! In fact, tears came to his eyes when certain tracks were played. (You know how it is, remembering where you were, and who you were with. WOW!) To me, this is a truly magically CD, and I highly recommend it!

4.0 out of 5 stars So Soulful Patti, June 8, 2009

By	Rabbit Warren (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews

This is a lovely album showcasing some of the finest singing Patti LaBelle has done. It is a romantic Valentine from a fine singer who has been entertaining us for decades. Her voice, her phrasing, her style -- all so captivating. No collection covering such a long career could include every fan's favorites, but this comes close. I am puzzled by the criticism by one fan that this album is too slow and lacks a change in tempo. It's called "Beautiful Ballads by Patti LaBelle." Emphasis on the word "ballads." The music is what you would expect it to be.

1.0 out of 5 stars Patti LaBelle is Wonderfull but the songs are too slow!, February 12, 2007

A Kid's Review

The title says it all! this album is another Valentines scam trying to con you out of your money! The songs individually are fantastic as are all Patti songs but this many slow songs shoild never be on the same disc like this EVER!!! The album does not have any real pictures of Patti(execpt one inside it think)! The cover is the picture of an ugly purple sick looking flower and Patti's name in a nice font. The albums tempo sureley put the mixer to sleep for a while which would explain the albums muffled sound! it sounds like it came straight from a record!!! Never though i'd see the day i'd rate a patti album so low!!!!!!! the sales are also BAD this album ranks at #76,000. The Ojays ballads CD (equally bad) is at #133,333! None of these albums according to billboard have sold more than 1,000 copies which for Patti And Gladys is astonishingly low for artists of their magnitude! Buy it if like me you just want to support Patti!
